Volume of punches would be OK if they actually landed, think Santa Cruz landed 13 more or something like that

He landed plenty in the last 4 rounds.
For me, there were a lot of close rounds, probably 6 rounds you could have scored either way.
I'm amazed the judges were so harsh.

I was screaming at the TV for Frampton to be busier in the second half of the fight. Maybe cos I really wanted Frampton to win I overestimated the work of Santa Cruz and thought Carl was blowing his lead.
A draw was fair for me, but I can see why people scored it a win for either guy. Rematch would be great. Frampton wins clearer in Belfast, but doubt he stops him.
